Bodhana TTRPG Plays - Monster of the Week
A presentation by Matthew Varrette MSW; RSW and James Kirk
About this Event
An introduction to a new series presented by The Bodhana Group. A Therapeutic Table Top roleplaying Game will be built from scratch and sampled by participants. Due to the overwhelmingly positive feedback and number of attendees, we will be offering 5 spots at the table and unlimited observers. Monster of the Week will be the system of choice for this exercise. About two hours will be devoted to learning the system, building the TTRPG, adding in some basic therapeutic elements, and the players will play through the game for two hours. During the game play section, the 5 spots at the table will rotate the gaming master role in order to practice GM skills. We will be taking in audience participation throughout. Ideally, it will be a shortened, basic example of learning a new system, building a small game, and practicing the skills of running the game with therapeutic intent.
